They are selling them before the release date, tomorrow (20 July, 2011) is the official release date.

None that have been announced or leaked.

There's a post in the moto triumph forum stating that the lg optimus black may be coming. I'd love to see a direct comparison.

I did a google search, this is the closest I got to your request:

At least you can watch both of them even tho not simultaneously...

The LG Optimus V is a totally different beast than the LG Optimus Black. The Black is higher end.

There is also rumor that the HTC Wildfire may be coming to VM late this year or early next year.
The WF is only slightly better in hardware (though it is said to be running Android 2.3) than the Optimus V is so asside form having a HTC in the line up I'm not sure what the reason is for bringing it in. I'm sure it will be a nice phone and all but I'm also sure it will not sell for 150.00 like the Optimus V and seriously by the time it gets to VM if it gets to them, it's not going to be worth much more than 150.00 because it seriously is not much better than the LG OV.
